Hi! I’m Zhalae, a Developer & Designer pursuing a Bachelor's and Master's in Information Science at Cornell University, with a concentration in Interactive Technology and Data Science.

My work lives at the intersection of data, design, and immersive systems. I’m especially passionate about applying data science and virtual reality to solve real-world challenges in healthcare and medicine, from building VR environments for pain management to analyzing behavioral patterns through multimodal data.

With a background in data science, virtual reality design + development, full-stack web development, ubiquitous computing, and human-computer interaction, I enjoy architecting user-centered systems that are not only technically robust but deeply thoughtful. Whether it’s developing interactive applications, visualizing complex datasets, or experimenting with sensor-driven experiences—I’m drawn to tech that really feels human.

Always curious and collaborative, I’m eager to connect with others working at the edge of innovation, impact, and meaningful user experience.
